I am still around just caught up in wandering through the graveyard of my memories calling for Ophelia forever floating down a river. She who is surrounded by flowers, oh so beautiful and oh so dead.

I don't know... why the hell I'm watching mermaids at this time of the night, suddenly... It soothes me somehow though. There are just those moments when all your thoughts and feelings are muddled up, and I'm feeling inconsolable....
*it reminds me of the Sirens....
"Can you feel ... spirits embracing your soul ...
... So dream of secrets of darkness untold...
Let your arms enfold us... thru the dark of night..."
Sometimes when I stumble upon old shadows, fragments of what once was... somehow comforts and brings inner stillness. But it never lingers, it never does, it never will.It is afterall just faded mementos of a time long gone. Then silence sinks its claws deeper, managing to draw blood from what I thought was already a husk. Leaving me more wretched than before. Leaving me....
LYRICS: Help, I have done it again I have been here many times before Hurt myself again today And, the worst part is there's no-one else to blame
Be my friend Hold me, wrap me up Unfold me I am small I'm needy Warm me up And breathe me
Ouch I have lost myself again Lost myself and I am nowhere to be found, Yeah I think that I might break I've lost myself again and I feel unsafe
Be my friend Hold me, wrap me up Unfold me I am small I'm needy Warm me up And breathe me
Be my friend Hold me, wrap me up Unfold me I am small I'm needy Warm me up And breathe me
There are so few things in the world that nourishes that inner loneliness. When found, these things are too few and too far in between. The things I seek has faded long ago and I have been washed away by the tides of time. What is left is a semblance of an empty shell of what once was. Though years have passed, I am still mourning me.

bits and pieces: The next physical thing the human species will lose because of evolution will be the wisdom teeth. After that, the little toes. Or so contend the anthropologists.

Random things that breaks the silence;
There are things that wake me up from my usual stupor which apparently started becoming more usual after the quarter life crisis I went through. The last anime that has been posted on here that managed to evoke this reaction on me was vampire knight.The anime I am talking about this time though is called Black Butler.
It is about making a pact with the devil, plotting and revenge. It is all set in Victorian England which is a big plus. Anime plus a Victorian theme is always a bonus in my book.There is a character there named Madame Red and I love her style. The anime has two season out right now and I honestly prefer the first season over the second one.
Works like these fills my head with images and momentarily urges me to create something whether by drawing, painting, doing photography, a digital art or good old writing poems. I can never quite say which one came first drawing or writing poems. They always went hand in hand, one inspiring the other. Someday I hope to be able to write poems in Spanish, when I accomplish that, it will be the moment where I can truly say that I have mastered that language. Being able to express myself in another language allows me to view things in a different perspective. It lets me experience a different world and the culture that is associated with that language.
It would seem that I digress once again. Back to the anime, after watching all of it I found myself wanting more which lead me to reading the manga sadly like Vampire Knight the manga is still not finished. I prefer reading manga’s or getting into animes that has already been wrapped up because I can do a marathon that way and I don’t have enough patience to wait for the monthly instalments.
Anyway, aside from Madame Red, I love Sebastian as well who wouldn’t. I didn’t even know Butlers can be sexy until I watched this anime. Butler and sexy usually doesn’t belong in the same sentence in my vocabulary. I generally prefer guys a bit more dishevelled with a touch of eccentricity. This character proves to be an exception and I almost forgot about Grell Sutclife, I love his brand of crazy...it never fails to make me smile. Next to Grell will be the undertaker guy
For those who are interested you can watch the anime on youtube in Funimation’s channel.
